AquaMaps are computer-generated predictions of natural occurrence of marine species, based on the environmental tolerance of a given species with respect to depth, salinity, temperature, primary productivity, and its association with sea ice or coastal areas. These 'environmental envelopes' are matched against an authority file which contains respective information for the Oceans of the World. Independent knowledge such as distribution by FAO areas or bounding boxes are used to avoid mapping species ... [Information of the supplier]

Enjoy looking the scientists over the shoulder while they are working on board of a research vessel, get the same sense of adventure and excitement in almost real time. Messages are sent home via satellites once a day, so you are only hours away from the real thing. You will encounter the day-to-day experiences of marine scientists from a very personal viewpoint, and you will find that working on the frontiers of science is as appealing to the brain as it is to the heart.

HMAP is a global research initiative to study the past ocean life and human interaction with the sea.
We are a group of about 100 researchers who have joined forces to develop an interdisciplinary research program using historical and environmental archives.
HMAP analyzes marine population data before and after human impacts on the ocean became significant. HMAP aims to enhance knowledge and understanding of how the diversity, distribution and abundance of marine life in the worlds oceans changes ... [Information of the supplier]

The Marine Science Center was founded 2008 and is part of the Institute of bioscience at the University of Rostock. The research focus on sensoric orientations of seals (Pinnipedia) in there natural habitats and possible technical applications (bionics). An unique facility, located at the Baltic sea, serves this purpose. It consist of an huge outdoor enclosure and a modified passenger ship. Several projects examine sensoric abilities of the seals. Many offers are available for visitors.
